To Ban Or Not To Ban?

Wherein you, the readers, talk amongst yourselves

What are your thoughts on the government trying to ban flavored cigarettes (except menthols, of course)? Are you in favor of stricter regulations on cigarettes, or do you think that it's all about personal responsibility?

It's personal responsibility now as we are now aware of how harmfull cigarettes are.

I am all for banning cigarettes, or at least a 100% tax on them.

I think the "Except menthols" is hilarious. If their idea had any sting, they took it right out with that…

I think we're slowly moving towards a ban. 15 years ago, tobacco companies could've done anything. But for whatever reason the tide very suddenly turned against them in the 90s and they don't have a whole lot of latitude to do much at all. (Not expressing sympathy for them, just an observation)
